NOTICE OF MOTIONS

Tuesday Next

37 Mr. Warnke to move in amendment, seconded by Mr. Cowie--: That the motion "We, Her Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, in Session assembled, beg leave to thank Your Honour for the gracious Speech which Your Honour has addressed to us at the opening of the present Session", be amended by adding the following: ", but this Assembly regrets that after 18 months after the election of this government, that the Province continues to operate without any economic plan which will return British Columbia to a stable financial footing and that this government continues, as a result, to plunge the Province into massive debt which defers the payment of their spending decisions onto future taxpayers; and furthermore, regrets that this Speech from the Throne provides only platitudes to the taxpayers of the Province, calling them to be courageous in their sacrifice while this government steadfastly refuses to take up the same challenge that it offered to taxpayers."
